size=2>Install it with --nodeps (rpm -i --nodeps <packetname>). Or even
better get the source, run configure and compile it yourself and then take the
binaries and build your own RPM. Is dead easy. You can also get rid of unwanted
plugins and pack your own scripts into the RPM. If you want to monitor multiple
systems and also provide certain default configs this is the only way. The
advantage.... you decide where the files go. I personally prefer to have
everything in a clear structure and not splattered all over the file system. I
usually install nagios in /usr/local/nagios and the plugins in
/usr/local/nagios/libexec. Config files go on my systems into /etc/nagios. Makes
finding things allot easier after a while. The RPMs from dag use when i remember
right many different directories. So for example the plugins end up in
/usr/lib/nagios, nagios in a total different directory and the web-interface
again in another directory....... administrative nightmare jumps to my
mind. If i wanted that i would run Windows
